Remembrance (1975)

We walked along an endless beach
The clouds drifting through the sky
I looked ahead and tried to reach
All who passed us by

But somehow they have gone
And the sun in brilliance lights the sky
So when the day begins at dawn
He looks at me and wants to cry

Remember life in a silent land
Where a red sun warms a dampened field
And familiar people hold your hand
Then all the pain seems to be healed

A dream of a special life can never end
It will be felt forever in the silent wind

Love and Death (1975)

A boy I see with shining eyes
Black hair that flows in the wind
He stands besides a lake and cries
And thinks of life again

I walk to him but do not speak
And he turns to look at me
Is it love or evil he will seek
As he explores this new country

I kneel to him and bow my head
And tell him of his great power
In some strange way I feel I'm dead
Could this be my last hour

For it is for all of us
Who raise him to the sky
Adoring the idea and filled with lust
He becomes our only almighty high

For he looks across a lake no more
His followers have granted him the key
Now able he opens the secret door
Blind fools they were to never see
